🛠️ For C# Developers
This theme leverages Semantic Highlighting to provide a superior coding experience. To get the best results:
Ensure the C# Dev Kit or OmniSharp extension is installed and active.
The light blue var styling helps you quickly scan method bodies and identify local assignments versus member access. 💻
🧹 Uninstallation
If you decide to uninstall the Claude Theme, we highly recommend restarting Visual Studio Code (or using the Developer: Reload Window command). This ensures that all UI elements and cached styles are fully cleared and your previous theme is restored perfectly.
